Summary
"The name George Armstrong Custer looms large in American history, specifically for his leadership in the American Indian Wars and unfortunate fall at the Battle of Little Bighorn. But before his time in the West, Custer began his career fighting for the Union in the Civil War. In Custer: the making of a young general, legendary Civil War historian Edward G. Longacre provides fascinating insight into this often-overlooked period in Custer's life"--
